Rims ?????

Hey guys next week I going to order rims for my stang and I am having a hard time t
Making up my mind! Either chrome or black rims would go well with my car because it's a candy apple red. I don't want anything larger than a 18 inch rims because I would like a decent ride cuz during the summer it's my daily driver.. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated thanks

I like the rims but the style is begging to be bigger than 18". I hear what you're saying about ride quality but going to a 20" wouldn't change the ride significantly. I have a friend with a 2011 Camaro and he is running 22s and it is a similar style of rim. If you already have it slammed or are planning to do so, it would look badazz!!

Are your killing me lol . I had my mind set on 20s the whole time and when I talked to the shop that is going to install the procharger they said I would loose a good amount of traction . But I still have 20s on the back of my mind if I do 20s I would either do a Saleen star or gooses nitrous

Yeah once my buddy got his 22s I was kicking myself for not going with 20s... My 18s look like go cart wheels next to his car lol. I went 18s cuz I didn't have the cash to buy new tires as well. Oh well maybe next income tax refund lol
